Dec 30

Between 1977 and 2007, my band played 29 of 31 times on NYE.
The 2 years we didn't have a gig (the bands were too new) we had a band party & played.
For the last 16 years, we played the same club each NYE which was 10 or 12 blocks from our house.
So, we'd throw a party for the band & close friends of the band.
It started at 2:30am.
As you probably surmise, we've done enough on NYE for a lifetime.
